INTRODUCTION
The XTENDEX Series ST-C5CMPDA-600 CAT5 Extender (XTENDEX) is designed to connect and extend the signals from one
high-definition (HD) video and digital (coax / SPDIF) audio source to two high-definition televisions (HDTV) and digital audio
devices, one of each local and one of each remote. Possible digital video and audio sources include a DVD player, cable
television box, home entertainment system, etc.. Digital audio devices include a HDTV, Home Theater System, Digital Audio
Receiver, or Digital Speaker set, etc.. The remote HDTV and audio device can be located as much as 600 feet away from the
source via Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair cable. The local HDTV and audio device will be located near the source.
The XTENDEX Series ST-C5CMPSA-600 CAT5 Extender is the same as the ST-C5CMPDA except that it is compatible with a
stereo line-level audio source and devices (HDTV Speakers, Home Theater or Stereo System, Stereo Amplifier, Headphones,
Computer Speakers, etc..) instead of a digital audio source and devices.
The XTENDEX Series Extender is extremely simple to install and has been thoroughly tested to insure reliable performance.
Through the use of Category 5 cable it is possible to economically increase the flexibility of an entertainment system. Here are
some of the features and ways this can benefit the user:
• Allows the placement of a HDTV and audio devices in a location where only these parts are needed without having the
audio/video source there too, taking up valuable space
• Allows an audio/video source (DVD player, cable television box, stereo amplifier, home entertainment system, etc), to
be seen and heard by both a local and/or remote set of devices (up to 600 feet away)
• Compatible with component video
• Provides crisp and clear 1080i resolution up to 1920x1080 with a 30MHz bandwidth and 720p resolution up to 1280x720
with a 37 MHz bandwidth
• Video quality adjustment, for varying lengths of cable, is automatic providing optimum image quality
• Digital transmission of audio signals reduces any loss in quality
• HDTV connections are dedicated connectors for YPbPr
• Hot-plugging of all video and audio connections is supported

LIMITATIONS
•
The audio output of the XTENDEX is compatible with self-powered stereo speakers. Otherwise, connect the audio outputs
to an audio receiver.
PREPARATION FOR INSTALLATION
•
Locations should be chosen for the HDTV and speakers that also have space to connect the Remote and Local Units within
the distance provided by the cables.
•
The CAT5 cables must be run to the locations where the Remote and Local Units will be connected. Be careful to route the
cables away from any sources of magnetic fields or electrical interference that might reduce the quality of the video and audio
signals (i.e. AC motors, welding equipment, etc.).
•
All cables should be installed in such a way that they do not cause stress on their connections to the equipment. Extended
lengths of cable hanging from a connection may interfere with the quality of that connection. Secure cables as needed to
minimize this.
Note: CAT5 connection cable used between NTI XTENDEX Series Local and Remote or any XTENDEX Series products
should not be run underground, outdoors or between buildings.
!
WARNING: Outdoor or underground runs of CAT5 cable could be dangerous and will void the warranty.

Unit to work)
Figure 2- Connect the local television and audio device to the Local Unit
Connect The CAT5 Cable
Connect the CAT5 cable to the “Cat 5” port on the Local Unit. (See Fig. 3.) When properly inserted the cable end should
snap into place.
Note: If an RJ45 wall outlet is being used, connect
the other end of the extension cable to the RJ45 wall
outlet.
!
WARNING: Never connect the XTENDEX
to an Ethernet card, Ethernet router, hub or switch or
other Ethernet RJ45 connector of an Ethernet device.

connector can each reach the Remote Unit without putting strain on the cables.
2.
Connect 75 ohm RCA cables between the remote HDTV and the RCA connectors marked "Y", "Pb", and "Pr" on the
Remote Unit as shown in Fig. 2.
3.
Connect coax cable for digital audio (ST-C5CMPDA-600 only) or stereo audio cable (ST-C5CMPSA-600 only) between the
audio connection(s) on the Remote Unit and the audio device. See Fig. 2.

Connect the CAT5 cable
Make sure the CAT5 cable has been installed in
accordance with the “Preparation for Installation”
instructions on page 5. Connect the CAT5 cable to the “Cat
5” port on the Remote Unit. (See Fig. 5.) When properly
inserted the CAT5 cable end should snap into place.
Note: If an RJ45 wall outlet is being used, connect the
other end of the extension cable to the RJ45 wall outlet.
!
WARNING: Never connect the XTENDEX
to an Ethernet card, Ethernet router, hub or switch or
other Ethernet RJ45 connector of an Ethernet device.
Damage to devices connected to the Ethernet may
result.

already been done.
2.
Connect each AC adapter power connector to the 9VDC ports on the Remote and Local Units Plug each AC adapter into a
power outlet. The green LED on the RJ45 connector of both the Remote and Local Units should illuminate, indicating that a
proper power connection has been made to them. (See Fig. 6.)
